I'm finding it hard to choose between Randy and Cartman.

I picked THE GRAND ILLUSION partly because I don't think Styx gets enough credit.  Maybe because of their immense popularity.  However, THE GRAND ILLUSION is just a great record on its own.  It's probably Styx's best.

^ Good Ol Carlos (Santana) was on Pretty As You Feel. Love the Airplane album Bark. So much to listen to, so little time to do it.....

yeah... Bark is very much an underrated gem. Not underrated among fans of the group perhaps.. but very much so among casual music fans.

Very hard choice

Go with Leftoverture by a very slight margin, but I love both albums.

Better will vote for STYX, because they will lose badly

Iván

PS: In school, we had to play 2 songs, as a drummer I was happy, because the vocalist also knew how to play, so when I sang, he took my place.

I day before the concert (The last presentation when we were leaving school), we were going to play "Fooling Yourself" and "Miss America" by STYX, but our bassist broke his hand.

Nobody else played bass, so the guy taught me in 4 hours how to play this two songs on bass, and I had to perform, because I was the only one who could be replaced.

The funny thing is that the bass and the drums sounded better than ever without a real drummer and a bassist.
